Well, luckily you are in IT like I am, and telecommuting is an option I went from walking to a wheelchair overnight, then to a walker, then to a cane fulltime at Christmas ...now I use the cane sporatically. I find stairs with no railings a real challenge and I really cant walk more than 2 miles without being exhausted.

I really do hope you get better, I have been there and done that and its no fun.
